“I was drawn to this story because of both the artistic theme and also the mystery theme. I enjoyed reading about Marion Spicer and the events that lead up to her collecting on her inheritance. I have to say that this was a very unique mystery. Although as I expected Marion encounters many different situations when she finally uncovers the truth behind her father and what he did. However, I was really impressed with the journey that Marion took and though on a superficial level she was trying to track done the missing artwork, on a sentimental side, she was really trying to uncover the truth behind her father and form a sort of connection with him, one that they did not share when he was alive. Aside from this I thought that Marion was a very strong and fierce woman. She handled herself in many different situations in ways , that to me, are typically assigned to male heroes. Although I did not "love" Marion I did admire her and found her to be very courageous. Overall, this was a interesting story a worthwhile read. I thought that the plot was an instant attention grabber and the heroine very memorable and intriguing.” —Book Nerd
